DCI24: Single Bevel Honesuki
160mm right handed honesuki in Damasteel stainless damascus Thor pattern.
The blade has been ground with a single bevel for right handed users. Mirror polished blade and etched to bring out the Thor pattern and stone finished on the edge. This is my first single bevel knife and cuts extremely well as my hand found out!
The handle has heirloom fit mokume-gane bolsters with zirconium spacer and stabilised Tasmanian Blackwood. The knife also has a black leather sheath.
